"Animation:Master" gives both beginning and advanced animators the ability
to tell their stories. Remarkably wrapped into one interface are advanced
features like inverse kinematics, ray-tracing, image mapping, and modeling of
complex organic and mechanical objects. The revolutionary patch-based
technology makes it easy to create natural, fluid-moving characters, scenery,
and props.

"Animation:Master," the 3D motion picture studio is the most powerful and
affordable spline based modeling and animation program available. Specifically
designed for classic character animation, the drag and drop, customizable
interface and powerful motion tools give you the control that is required to tell
your story.

Since A:M is geared toward character animation, it gives you the ability to build
libraries of actions and characters that can be reused over and over. Its cross
platform compatibility makes A:M an excellent choice for studios with multiple
types of systems.

Make a movie, Design any character you can
imagine, Enhance business presentations, Create 3D
story boards, Build your own virtual reality!

POWERFUL FEATURES
• Spline-based modeling, animation, and rendering - allows smooth organic
models and natural freeform motions

• Bones mode - for easy IK construction inverse kinematics - to interactively
pose articulated characters

• Skeletal, morphing, and bending actions in combination - all three kinds of
object and character motion can be overlapped and used in unison

• Time-based motion "ease" - for accurate acceleration and deceleration of
movement

• True patch-based "UV Decal" mapping - using bitmapped images that are
locked to a surface and distort properly when an object bends and twists

• D3D - real-time rendering

• Motion libraries - so that a complex action needs to be built only once and
then used over and over again. Includes motion capture input and motion
control input

• Lip synch key framing - for assembling lip shapes with automatic
inbetweening
